Long a well-known pre- Stephen King bestselling horror novel, IĪssume many readers of TMHF will be familiar with Harvest Home's set-up: New YorkĪd-exec Ned Constantine wants to paint full-time, so he and his family Actor-turned-author Thomas Tryon (1926-1991) continued his success after 1971's The Other, another tale of quiet down-home horror. Well, maybe not breathless exactly, but in a state of extreme suspense. Rereading it recently proved no help, as there were several scenes that now left me breathless with horror. ![]() All I recall about my reading of this paperback of the bestselling Harvest Home (Fawcett Crest/June 1974) in the late 1980s is that there was one scene that left me breathless with horror, but I have never been able to remember specifically what happened in that scene. ![]()
